RIDGID 300 Pipe threader Complete Bargain ENGLAND !

2 years ago i brought a ridgid 300 pipe threader, stand, and oiler. cost me nearly £2800 ! i used the threader for around 2 jobs which consisted of maybe threading 50 pipes?

so as you can see the motor will be basically new and ive had it checked out and they said its perfect. however the paint condition has a few scuffs etc from being stroed in my garage and the oiler bucket does has a crack in it.

heres a picture, comes with all you can see , im looking for offers but would like a nice quick sale. great machine hardly used!

If that machine is only two years old (I would be willing to give you five years)

Why did you change out the carriage and reamer for one that is over 25 years old?

The oiler looks to be after market junk (looks like Berkley), and if it is Ridgid you should send it back to Ridgid attn: Steve Morris, he has said they are almost indistructable and I am sure he would like to look at it to see why it failed.

What happened to the factory original cord and foot switch? Someone added and rewired the foot switch since it is as old as the reamer.

The tri-stand and power head may be less than two years old but can't tell from the pics, the model and serial number would tell the whole story.

Just remember...............you asked, no hard feelings I hope.

G3

no hard feels at all infact youve helped me alot a few questions tho

the oiler, the gun says ridgid on it, though the bucket doesnt, bucket is plastic, though the filter is metal is this standard?

that is exactly how i brought it from a tool shop so weather its been rewired etc i dont have a clue, if i get the serial number will you be able to retrive its history so to speak?
